From the NY Times, of course: Anti-Clinton Donor Reported as Donor to Giuliani.<\/a> Have you ever read George Soros described as an \u201canti-Bush donor?\u201d Nah. He was simply a donor! A concerned guy with money! And if he compared Bush to Hitler and stuff \u2013 well, that was just politics, right? He didn\u2019t mean nuthin\u2019 by it!<\/p>\n But this fella, Richard Collins \u2014 he is much different<\/em> than Soros, or Jeffrey Epstein or Steve Bing or any of the other profoundly rich people who donated heavy cash to the Democrats specifically because they detested President Bush. They were just making political donations. Collins \u2014 he is a nefarious anti-Clinton donor!<\/p>\n It\u2019s one of the things that has fascinated me over the past ten years \u2013 the press\u2019 seeming perspective that there are Clintons and Clinton supporters, and then there is the rest of the world, which contains \u2013 among other things \u2013 anti-Clintites.<\/em><\/p>\n Those are very, very bad people, the anti-Clintites. The don\u2019t simply dissent, they actually focus their dissent on the god and goddess in particular. Let them be identified!<\/p>\n All you anti-Clinton people \u2013 thou anti-Clintites!<\/strong> Come forth, and be so labeled! Your branding will begin after lunch!<\/p>\n And get this, I love this part of the story: <\/p>\n While the Giuliani camp has no direct connection to Stop Her Now, some Democrats argued yesterday that Mr. Giuliani \u2014 who seems poised for a possible presidential run of his own \u2014 should disavow the personal nature of the criticisms that the group is leveling at Mrs. Clinton.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Awwwww\u2026that group says mean things about Mrs. Clinton! Giuliani must publicly disavow them! \u201cSome Democrats\u201d (aka, \u201cwe in the media\u201d) say so!<\/p>\n Those aren\u2019t the rules for any other politician but for Rudy (or whoever ends up running against Hillary) this will be the additional requirement: all donors must be screened to make sure they haven\u2019t said anything bad about Mrs. Clinton and if they have, they must be disavowed by Giuliani and his whole team. And probably, if he really wanted to prove that he is a good guy and all, Giuliani should return checks to anyone who checks out as a rabid \u201canti-Clintite!\u201d<\/p>\n This over-protectiveness of Hillary Clinton is not new, by the way, reporter Andrea Mitchell was doing it \u2018way back in 2000<\/a> when Rudy dared to make a mild joke about Clinton, Mitchell said he was \u201cin Hillary\u2019s face.\u201d You decide:<\/p>\n In a July 6 NBC Nightly News profile of Mayor Giuliani Andrea Mitchell asserted: \u201cHis friend and enemies agree he\u2019s brash, arrogant, aggressive \u2014 the ultimate New Yorker. A perfect opponent for the First Lady. And today after she opened her exploratory committee he\u2019s already in her face about being a carpet-bagger.\u201d<\/p>\n Giuliani: \u201cYou should always explore. Exploring is a good thing. Who can have anything against exploring.\u201d<\/p>\n Mitchell: \u201cStill an undeclared candidate he\u2019s raising money, traveling the state and ridiculing the First Lady\u2019s newfound interest in New York.\u201d<\/p>\n Giuliani joking on the Late Show with David Letterman: \u201cI\u2019m going to get off the plane in Little Rock and I\u2019m going to say \u2018I\u2019ve never lived here, I\u2019ve never worked here, I ain\u2019t never been here, but I think it would be cool to be your Senator.\u2019\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Dear God, what a monster is Rudy!<\/strong> Brand him too! Anti-Clintite!<\/em><\/p>\n Because you can\u2019t have ugliness in politics, no sir! Saying anything remotely not-positive about Mrs. Clinton, why that\u2019s just \u2018way over the top, unconscionable. That would be as bad as say, politicians referring to George W. Bush as Alfred E. Neumam or, you know, someone going too far and calling a politician \u201ca nazi\u201d or, you know, nasty stuff like that.<\/p>\n Hillary Clinton has been treated with kid gloves by the press<\/strong> for as long as she has been in the public eye. Remember the Oprah-esque presser she threw where she wore the pink skirt suit<\/a> and she and various news gals sat in a chummy circle while Hillary said, essentially: <\/p>\n \u201chonestly, I have no idea how I made $100,000 in cattle futures in one week, from a teensy $1,000 investment. I just gave the check to the guy and he did the deal! I am just a simple woman! No, it never occurred to me to ask how I got such a return! Isn\u2019t that silly of me? Us girls are so silly! You know, I never did think to ask that smart man to make me more money like that, since he did so good the first time! Isn\u2019t the world mean to even ask me about this silly subject?\u201d\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n And the presswomen around her sighed and said, essentially, <\/p>\n \u201cyeah, Hillary, it\u2019s silly and we shouldn\u2019t even be listening to those old time-wasters, should we? They\u2019re just mean<\/em> and they don\u2019t understand how great you are, like we do. But don\u2019t worry, Hillary, we\u2019ll protect you! But you know, the pink suit, that\u2019s got to go! Let\u2019s have a makeover! From now on, whenever you want to soften your effect, just wrap a cashmere cardigan around your shoulders! Yeah, right over your suit jacket, that\u2019s fine! Boy, you\u2019re great, Hillary!\u201d\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\n<\/strong>
\nNot just a donor to Giuliani but \u2013 gasp \u2013 an anti-Clinton donor!

\nThe writer, the ever-obsequious Raymond Hernandez<\/a> has had his head remarkably far up Mrs. Clinton\u2019s backside for years. But this headline, and the story, just cracked me up.<\/p>\n
